The best resource to help you care for your aging parent!
This comforting and poignant guide bridges the gap between elderly parents and the adult children who care for them. Covering health, finances, living arrangements, communication, and emotional struggles, Caring for Your Aging Parents offers caring, professional advice for the increasingly difficult decisions that caregivers face, including:
- Making the right choice between home care and assisted living
- Coping with memory-loss and dementia
- Expressing care and concern without sending mixed messages
- Counteracting negative behavior
- Encouraging other family members to help with caregiving
- Managing stress and taking care of yourself
With a wealth of resources and reassuring answers, Caring for Your Aging Parents helps caregivers foster a loving, cooperative relationship with their parents in this new chapter of their life and realize that even during this difficult transition, they are not alone.
